Problems Uploading Photos

[bigcheed]

hi all not sure if this is the right place for this thread but im having problems uploadind photos. I normally use the photo bucket direct link into the image box on the interface. but when I paste the url into the box the process sort of freezes up. the ok option on the image box does not highlight and I then cant close the box either it just stays on screen. ive tried this on my desktop as well as my laptop with the same result. can anyone shed any light on this please.

I was having troubles with photobucket (seems they did some sneaky upgrade and changed functions).
I have been using the IMG tab on the right of the photobucket screen.

this is getting very frustrating I cant get to the bottom of the problem. im still not able to post image links from photo bucket. whats baffling me is that I cant close down the image box after wards it just stays on screen. all the other buttons on the tool bar work fine. even if I open the image box and paste nothing in it I cant close it. that's got to be something wrong with the tool bar surely. can anyone please help with this.

I don't really know much about these sorts of things..but could it be affected by what browser you're using? Have you tried a different one to see if that helps?

 

[bigcheed]

yes I just have. I think the problem is with the new internet explorer 11. I just tried fire fox and every thing works fine. im in the process of finding out which one of the internet options is blocking access to the image button.

well ive tried every settings combo i can with ie 11. cannot get the bloody thing to post images for love nor money. looks like ill have to start using fire fox from now on.

I've been getting similar problems.  I'm unable to paste text into reply boxes and any dialog box just freezes up.  I've been using the little button that removes rich text formatting to get around the problem, then I can copy and paste.

where is this button located please daizeuk. its not one im familiar with.

 

[daizeUK]

It's the button top left that looks like a light switch.

I've just switched back to IE after having issues with Chrome, now having issues like OP is experiencing. I was wondering if compatibility settings may help

my system downloaded some updates this morning. Now I can't upload photos using photobucket either.

 

[bigcheed]

any one have any luck with this yet. I still cant use the tool bar when on internet explorer 11.

Can't add a photo when clicking image it says image properties and asks for url ?

I think it's a compatibility problem between IE 11 and the website. Possibly the website needs updating to support IE 11?
